x86-64: fix Intel64 handling of branch with data16 prefix
The expectation of x86-64-branch-3 for "call" / "jmp" with an obvious direct destination to translate to an indirect _far_ branch is plain wrong. The operand size prefix should have no effect at all on the interpretation of the operand. The main underlying issue here is that the Intel64 templates of the direct branches don't include Disp16, yet various assumptions exist that it would always be there when there's also Disp32/Disp32S, toggled by the operand size prefix (which is being ignored by direct branches in Intel64 mode). Along these lines it was also wrong to base the displacement width decision solely on the operand size prefix: REX.W cancels this effect and hence needs taking into consideration, too. A disassembler change is needed here as well: XBEGIN was wrongly treated the same as direct CALL/JMP, which isn't the case - the operand size prefix does affect displacement size there, it's merely ignored when it comes to updating [ER]IP.

+ * config/tc-i386.c (flip_code16): New.
+ (output_branch, output_jump): Use it.
+ (i386_displacement): Restrict template set to just direct
+ branches when handling a respective operand. Don't set Disp16
+ when in Intel64 mode and there's a respective template.
+ * testsuite/gas/i386/i386.exp: Convert x86-64-branch-3 from list
